eaeeeieileewem To al] wia-0m t may conce-rn Be it known that l, JULIUS SCHWARZ, aV citizen of the United States, and a resident of Union Hill, in thecounty of Hudson and State of New Jersey, havey invented a new and Improved Embroidered Fabric, of

which thefollowing is a full, clear, and exu l y fings, and consequently the portion of the act description.

The invention relates to embroidery and its object is to provide a new and improved embroidered fabric such as is used Y for iounces and the like on wcmens dresses andk other garments, the embroidered fabric being provided with an embroidered border arranged to allow the lower portion of ther fabric to overlie a portion of the border without being attached thereto, with a view to produce a very line effect.

ln order to accomplish the desired result, use is made of the main body of a fabric material provided with embroidery ornaments, and a border of a woven fabric material provided with embroidery ornaments and partly underlying the said main body, sundry of the stitches of the said embroidery ornaments on the main body engaging the said border to fasten the latterin position on the main body a distance from the edge of the latter.

A practical embodiment of the invention is represented in the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference in-f dicate corresponding parts in all theyviews.

Figure 1 is a front elevation of the embroidered fabric; Fig. 2 is a rear face view of the same; and Fig. 3 is Van enlarged cross section of the same on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1.

The main body A is preferably made of closely-woven fabric material and is provided with embroidery ornaments B produced in the usual manner on a suitablel embroidery machine by forming stitches according to a predetermined design. A border C, preferably of net or open mesh fabric, has its upper portion underlying the body A while the lower portion of the border depends from the lower edge of the body A, and this lower portion is provided with embroidery ornaments D produced Yon the embroidery machine by stitches, the same as the ornaments B. The border C is attached to the body A by sundry of the Application filed February 18, 1914. Serial No. 819,388.

vstitches, forming the ornaments B, bntL in such a manner that the lower portion ofthe rbody freely overlies the Aborder C with- 4out being attached thereto. Thus, as shown .1n the drawings, the stitches used for fastening the b order C to the body A are located above the line E, E indicated in the drawbody A below this line E overlies the border C- without being attached thereto, as will be readily understood by reference to Fig. 3.

By reference to Fig. 2, it will be noticed that the stitches used lfor fastening the border C in place on the body A appear raised on the back of the border, while the stitches of the ornaments B below the line E, E do not appear onthe back of the border.

The edges of the body A and border C are preferably scalloped'and embroidered to give a ne finish to the fabric.

By reference to Fig. 2, it will be noticed that the upper edge of the border C practically overlies the embroidery ornaments B, and the upper portion of the border C is'not visible from the front of the fabric except at those ornaments B which are cut V yor other garment.
